On April 5, 2013, an unidentified person went to a home in extremely rural southeast Idaho to retrieve his/her dog. The person found a 2-yr.-old and an infant, both girls, on the front step. Inside the house were the bullet ventilated bodies of a man, 62, his son, 32, and his son's girlfriend, 27. Sheriff's officers found more than 30 marijuana plants inside, and 64 pit bull dogs outside. It turned out that most of the dogs were being kenneled for other people and a few belonged to the occupants. Most of the dogs were in horrible condition and had obviously been used for fighting. The killer or killers were never identified.
